First thoughts were something like the long-nosed Blenheim (can’t remember what mark that is) but this looked older. so perhaps a Boulton Paul Overstrand but that’s not it.
It’s a Potez 540 which went into service the same year, 1934, as the Overstrand.

I was wondering If the holder was for an IPad or an Android?
and the make of the touchscreen on the right.
Does anyone know what these instruments were actually intended for?

It was a mirror so the pilot could adjust his moustache before leaving the aircraft................
I quite like the leisurely pace TBh.................

Hmmm. I’m thinking it’s a US navy aeroplane, lost off a training carrier on the Great Lakes in WW2.
Haven’t several been recovered and then subject to an ownership challenge?
Actual type eludes me.
